‘I could be a florist…’

 

Yes! Absolutely, you could be a florist!

So, what does it take to follow your dream?

First, you need to decide and take the initial steps to explore this career option to start your journey.

Being a florist is a hands-on job that requires practice, a good eye for detail and visual balance, creativity, and a passion for excellent customer service.

 

Foundational Skills and Knowledge

To gain confidence as a floral artist and designer, you need a solid foundation in the basics of flowers, plant materials, and design principles. These foundational skills are crucial as they provide the freedom and confidence to experiment with new trends and styles, adapt to changes, and continually improve.

Completing Certificate III with our school will provide you with the essential skills and knowledge to embark on your new career as a florist. You’ll have numerous opportunities to practice new techniques and refine your skills.

Practical Experience and Business Skills

Our program will also build your confidence in providing quotes for weddings and large functions and in calculating the number of flowers needed to ensure profitability. We simulate the florist shop experience by setting up flower displays, pricing products, and taking customer orders. Students even get the chance to design their own florist pop-up shop and select suitable products and flowers to sell, which can be incredibly fun!
